Chapter 29 A Village Girl in the 1970s
After arriving at the courtyard, Yao Yunzhen took out a mask from her pocket and put it on before walking out of the courtyard with Xie Jingyue.
She has gotten used to carrying a mask in her pocket and wearing it when she goes out.
Xie Jingyue couldn't help but feel sorry for him.
Zhenzhen has an exceptionally beautiful face, but she can only hide behind a mask and cannot even travel freely.
Given his current status, he can protect her, but letting her live a carefree life would be extremely difficult.
We still need to work harder.
The two slowly walked towards the village entrance, and Xie Jingyue couldn't help but turn his head to look at his beloved who was so close to him.
"Zhenzhen...may I call you that?"
Although he had already called her name, he couldn't help but be careful and nervous in front of Yao Yunzhen, afraid of upsetting her or making her uncomfortable.
Yao Yunzhen nodded nonchalantly: "Sure."
It's just a title; it doesn't have any special meaning for Yao Yunzhen. Anyone can call her that.
No, let's forget about people like Yao Meimei and Lu Yikang.
Yao Yunzhen felt uncomfortable just thinking about it.
Xie Jingyue's lips curled up uncontrollably, his face beaming with pleasure.
“Zhenzhen”.
"Um?"
Yao Yunzhen turned her head to look at him. What was this person laughing at?
Looking into those beautiful eyes and seeing his own reflection, joy surged like a tide, overwhelming his heart. He felt as if he were on a dreamlike cloud, and everything around him seemed so beautiful and unreal.
Xie Jingyue exclaimed, "I never imagined you would be my fiancée."
Thankfully, thankfully it was him who came this time, and he met Zhenzhen.
"I never expected it to be such a coincidence."
"This shows that it's our destined connection."
"If you say so, then it is."
Yao Yunzhen didn't take it to heart.
Xie Jingyue was extremely perceptive and immediately noticed Yao Yunzhen's nonchalant attitude, which made him a little anxious.
Could it be that Zhenzhen is not satisfied with him?
He forced himself to remain calm and said, "If not, how come we already knew each other beforehand?"
Yao Yunzhen frowned slightly: "This can only be described as a coincidence."
Xie Jingyue realized that Zhenzhen didn't seem to have any good feelings towards him.
This realization immediately made him anxious.
Why? Did he do something wrong?
Xie Jingyue was completely baffled.
No, we must clear up the misunderstanding as soon as possible.
He's about to rejoin the team, so we can't let Zhenzhen have negative feelings towards him.
Zhenzhen is already his fiancée, and he cannot allow her to have even the slightest possibility of leaving him.
Xie Jingyue tentatively asked, "Zhenzhen, what are your thoughts on this marriage agreement?"
Yao Yunzhen stopped and turned to look at Xie Jingyue: "So what do you think?"
"Of course I want to continue this marriage. I...I want to marry you."
By the end, Xie Jingyue's ears had turned red, but he did not back down. He still looked directly into Yao Yunzhen's eyes, showing his determination.
Yao Yunzhen could only complain about this.
Although the other party helped her, this should not be confused with other matters.
No matter how good his character is, his behavior in the face of this marriage was terrible and very off-putting.
He hadn't even exchanged a letter before, cutting off all contact, clearly showing he didn't care about the engagement and might even have wanted to break it off. But now that he's seen her in person, he wants to continue.
He was obviously attracted to her looks.
Ah, men.
Yao Yunzhen wasn't stupid; she naturally sensed the difference before and after, but she didn't care much about it.
Of course, because she didn't care, she didn't take Xie Jingyue's blatant display of affection to heart.
Yao Yunzhen didn't care whether he liked her face or her as a person.
He was after her looks, she was after his money; that's all.
Besides, the other person is good-looking too, so she's not at a loss.
Born from love and desire, Yao Yunzhen's views differed from those of humans in some ways. She didn't care about these differences, nor did she feel that indulging in pleasure was shameful.
Of course, Yao Yunzhen needs to be sure that marrying him is the right choice.
"Tell me about the situation in the area where your troops are stationed."
Xie Jingyue was secretly delighted.
Zhenzhen's question shows that she is considering her future life, and also considering him.
Xie Jingyue became more and more serious, telling Yao Yunzhen in detail everything he could about the military district. Finally, he added, "My current position is deputy regimental commander. If I get married, my family can accompany me to the military. We can apply for separate housing. All the neighbors are soldiers, and outsiders cannot come and go as they please. But life inside is free and convenient. There is a supply and marketing cooperative and a canteen. It's no problem to eat three meals a day in the canteen."
Yao Yunzhen's stunningly beautiful face is extremely dangerous to be seen outside, but her safety can be guaranteed within the military region.
As long as Yao Yunzhen doesn't leave the military region, she can live a very comfortable life inside.
Yao Yunzhen's expression became more serious.
Putting everything else aside, she was quite excited about being able to take off her mask.
Xie Jingyue continued, "Of course, I can also cook, and the food tastes pretty good. I'm also good at housework. If you marry me, I will definitely not let my wife suffer at all."
By the end, Xie Jingyue's face had turned even redder.
That sounds pretty good.
Her mother once said that a girl's life is only a little easier when she lives at her parents' home. After marriage, she has to take care of housework, have children, and is no longer a free person.
She has worried about her married life more than once, feeling that she has spoiled her too much, and has wanted to teach her how to do laundry and cook more than once.
Of course, Yao Yunzhen managed to dodge all of them with her coquettishness and whining.
If she has to do these things after getting married, she would rather not get married.
She married for a better life, not to suffer.
But Xie Jingyue's words clearly showed that he had noticed some of her behavior and also demonstrated his sincerity.
Although they hadn't spent much time together, Yao Yunzhen knew Xie Jingyue quite well and knew that he disdained lying and deception, so his words were quite credible.
That's what she thought, but Yao Yunzhen didn't give a definite answer. Instead, she replied perfunctorily, "We'll see."
She's still young and doesn't want to get married so early.
Xie Jingyue was very disappointed, but he couldn't rush things, so he changed the subject.
After dropping the person off at the crossroads outside the village, Yao Yunzhen decided not to go any further.
"I'll leave you here. You can go back now."
Xie Jingyue looked at the low trees and weeds by the roadside, feeling a little uneasy.
"How about I take you home first?"
Yao Yunzhen couldn't help but roll her eyes.
Xie Jingyue immediately realized that he had said something foolish.
"Then I'll see you off. I'll leave after you enter the village."
Although it wasn't far from the village, and you could see people going to work in the distance, Xie Jingyue couldn't bear to leave her here.
Yao Yunzhen clearly lacked such tenderness and was rather clueless about romance.
"Alright then."
"etc."
Yao Yunzhen had just turned around when Xie Jingyue called her back.
"What's wrong now?"
Yao Yunzhen was getting a little impatient.
